    No individual is responsible for everything. But there are a disproportionately small number of individuals with a disproportionately large amount of power over a lot of things that affect a disproportionately large number of people. And you can bet they talk to each other.

      Who are these people?

      Last time i heard this inane shit, it was the Jews, so just wondering if that’s still the case.

        The CEOs/Presidents/Owners of major Oil companies and major food manufacturers.

        Nestle, Proctor & Gamble, Exxon, Suncor, BP, this is just off the top of my head.

        Those ones and more. The jew bullshit (and the rest of Q anon) is there to keep us fighting each other so the problem doesn’t get fixed.

          Are you one of those people that blames climate change on oil manufacturers?

          major food manufacturers

          This one’s way out of left field so I think it deserves its own explanation. The hell?

            Question one: Yes. Watch the documentary Who killed the electric car for more. It’s old now, but it goes in to detail about how oil companies and car manufacturers took action to crush electric car development in the 90s.

            People have wanted affordable alternatives to oil products for decades and these companies actively stifle progress in those areas.

            Companies like Nestle pay minimal fees for our natural water sources then sell it back to us in plastic bottles. There was also the whole thing in the 70s where they fucked over a bunch of third world moms and a lot of babies died.

            I’ll let you do your own browsing, but here’s the first source I found on the first one to get you started:

              So, irrelevant to today. Got it.

              No. Places sell Nestle water rights, and they do what they want with those rights. That’s no more dishonest or controlling than a California nut farmer doing the same.

              Do you have anything current-day, or real at all, that you’d like to bring up?

                  Maybe if you want to relax don’t pop out inane hot takes. Someone might call you out on those.

                  Enjoy being irrationally mad at George Soros in a couple years and wondering how you got to that point.
